KU Endowment
Annual Report
2012
You did it again
In fiscal year 2012, the generosity of donors like you once again
demonstrated your willingness to help the University of Kansas
and The University of Kansas Hospital soar.
We set three all-time records this year. Private gifts rose to the
highest level in our 121-year history, marking the fifth year in a row
of record private support. Those gifts came from a record number of
donors. All these contributions count toward Far Above: The Campaign
for Kansas, which celebrated its public launch in April.
And, most satisfying of all, this year KU Endowment provided
a record amount of support to the university and the hospital. The
generosity of donors, in this and previous years, made that possible.
Your gifts raise the entire university enterprise to new heights.
They help our state’s most promising students — tomorrow’s leaders — rise
to the excellence of a KU education. They build ideal environments for
research, discovery and teaching in disciplines across the board. They
promote more options for medical treatment, and ultimately more
hope, for people in our state and region.
Please accept our thanks for your continued generosity, offered on
behalf of the entire University of Kansas family.

Rising Far Above
In April, alumni, donors and friends celebrated the public launch
of Far Above: The Campaign for Kansas.
With a goal of $1.2 billion, Far Above seeks support to
educate future leaders, advance medicine, accelerate discovery
and drive economic growth to seize the opportunities of the
future. At the time of the public kickoff, we had raised $612
million toward the campaign goal.
Far Above will help secure KU’s position in the top tier of
public research universities and academic medical centers. The
generosity of our donors will elevate the University of Kansas,
The University of Kansas Hospital, the state of Kansas and the
region we serve.
Far Above is set to conclude in 2016.
Campaign leaders address attendees at the campaign kickoff. Left to right: Co-chair Mark Parkinson, Chair Kurt Watson, Co-chairs Tom and Jill Docking, and

Fundraising: Five consecutive record years
Fiscal 2012 saw continued generous donor support for KU and The University of
Kansas Hospital through KU Endowment. For the fifth consecutive year, total
fundraising reached a record high, $156.5 million, which represents a 2 percent
rise over last year’s comparable figure, $153.2 million.
Included in the $156.5 million total is $121.4 million in outright gifts,
pledges, realized bequests and life-income gifts. This is an 8 percent increase over
last year’s comparable figure of $112.5 million, as reported in our audited financial
statements. The balance is made up of $34.2 million in deferred gift commitments
and $900,000 in donations made directly to KU.
Gifts came from 46,257 donors, also an all-time record. More than 60 percent
of our donors live in Kansas.

record institutional Support
Private giving through KU Endowment transforms lives and
fulfills dreams. In fiscal 2012, donors enabled KU Endowment
to provide a total of $119.3 million in support for KU and The
University of Kansas Hospital. This amount is an all-time high,
6 percent more than last year’s total.
More than 6,900 KU students received financial assistance from
Endowment funds, which support virtually all scholarships and
fellowships at KU. Endowment accounts provided more than 88
percent of total funding for KU’s distinguished professors. Private
giving enriched lives throughout the region by funding outreach
programs and expanding library and museum holdings.
Donor support for The University of Kansas Hospital ensured
first-rate patient care; provided new facilities, equipment and
comfort items for patients and families; and established new
programs and educational resources.
Since our founding in 1891, we have provided more than $1.9
billion in support to the university. Over decades, private giving
has provided about two-thirds of campus buildings and about 85
percent of the land available for campus expansion.

Asset values and allocations
Assets
Asset allocations
Marketable securities compose 87 percent of KU Endowment’s total
assets; the balance is primarily real estate owned by KU Endowment,
loans to KU students and faculty, and outstanding pledges.
The Long-term Investment Program is managed to produce
maximum returns with minimal volatility. It is diversified both
by asset class and within asset classes.
Seeking increased diversification and enhanced returns, the
KU Endowment Investment Committee has gradually increased
allocations to international equities, inflation protection and
alternative investments. Alternatives include investment strategies
intended to produce consistent returns, with less volatility than
the overall market.
Value of total assets: Book value of assets, plus unrealized gain
or loss on marketable securities, according to audited financial
statements. Excludes unrealized appreciation of real estate and
other special holdings.*
Market value of total assets: Includes unrealized appreciation
of real estate and other special holdings.*
Market value of endowment: Reported in accordance with the Standards
of the National Association of College and University Business Officers.
* Unrealized appreciation of real estate and other special holdings is not audited
and is not recorded on the Statement of Financial Position.

Investment philosophy and objectives
Investing for the very long term
Performance objectives
To support learning, discovery, public service and patient care over
the long term, KU Endowment remains committed to managing
endowed funds to provide a stable return in perpetuity.
KU Endowment invests endowed funds and other long-term
funds collectively in our Long-term Investment Program, which
includes more than 3,300 individual fund accounts. The value of
these funds makes up 71.6 percent of KU Endowment’s total assets.
The Long-term Investment Program returned -3.4 percent in
fiscal 2012. This decline followed two fiscal years of double-digit
positive returns, 13.8 percent in fiscal 2010 and 22.8 percent
in fiscal 2011. Combining the returns over three years yields an
average annual compound return of 10.6 percent. During this
period, we have continued to manage the Long-term Investment
Program to maintain liquidity, increase diversification and
enhance the portfolio’s overall risk/return profile.
Global equity markets fell during this volatile fiscal year, with
developed markets returning -5 percent and emerging markets
down significantly more at -15.7 percent. In the recent investment
environment, markets have undergone strong advances followed
by deep retreats that often are based more on investor fear than on
economic fundamentals.
Over the long term, the absolute objective is to achieve a total
return that meets or exceeds the rate of inflation, as measured
by the Consumer Price Index, plus the total spending rate from
the Long-term Investment Program. The relative objective is to
achieve a total return that meets or exceeds a combined benchmark
of appropriate capital market indices, weighted according to the
portfolio’s target asset allocation. This chart shows the total return
for the portfolio since the inception of performance measurement
in June 1988.

cause for congratulations
Roy Jensen, M.D., director of The University of Kansas Cancer Center, greets State
Reps. Louis Ruiz and Valdenia Winn, both of Wyandotte County. Jensen had just
announced the cancer center’s designation as a National Cancer Institute Cancer
Center, following a decade-long quest.
The Kansas Masons spearheaded initial fundraising efforts in 2003, and hundreds
of private donors have given more than $107 million since 2008 to KU Endowment
to support the effort to attain NCI designation.
